Main WP Objectives: The objectives of this work package are the development of models and procedures for the exploitation of STORE2HYDRO solutions in power transmission and distribution systems characterized by large-scale integration of non-dispatchable renewable energy production (wind and solar energy) (Task 4.1 and 4.2) and to evaluate the trade-offs and limitations(Task 4.3). This work package will also address scenarios in which hydro energy can support high levels of integration of wind/solar by maintaining the system stability after grid disturbances despite the variability of renewable energy sources (Task 4.4).
This task will define requirements and metrics for renewable energy (wind and solar energy) and hydropower to meet regional power system flexibility in a large-scale integration of renewables+hydro energy scenario, to provide the right capacity at the right time.
The architecture of the future electric power system is a major determinant for the system feasibility, safety, availability, reliability and efficiency, where power electronic devices will play an important role in the future grid, both in steady-state and dynamically.
This task will evaluate the operational impact on different times scales and control scenarios to increase the reliability of a large-scale interconnected system. The result of this task will be an evaluation of the wind+solar/hydro integration to meet the requirements for ancillary services under a large degree of variability of renewables.
